Le Mas du Colombier - Les Vans - Ardèche Méridionale

Close to hiking trails, mountain climbing, and more, this welcoming villa brings it all within reach. Monts d'Ardèche Regional Nature Park is just a short walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers covered onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make the 17-minute drive to Cévennes National Park.

After you return to this 4306-sq-ft villa, you can unwind by the private pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the deck or patio and outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and DVD player.

A living room, a dining area, a BBQ grill, and a fireplace are featured at this 8-bedroom, 4-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
